Hi all. I am building a tug of my own design. It's 45" long, and I
need a pair of 4"props for it.  I was told of a company called "Prop
Shop" that makes a full line of cast brass propellers for model boats.
Not tho ones with the blades soldered onto the hub, but full cast
propellers like the real ones.  Anyone know how to contact these guys?
Do they have web site?? Thanks!!

I think the one in the UK is the one the OP wants:
http://www.britnett.net/propshop/index.html

The one that comes up on google that's in the U.S. has props,
but it doesn't look like it carries the nice scale props. -Wm

Harbor Models cast me a Kort nozzle prop 5.4" diameter for a 1:24
scale tug.  If you could find a stock one, it'd be a lot more
reasonable than one-off.

Maybe you could contact the www.floatingdrydock.com they have
selection of props under MUCH MORE catagory. They have 3 3/4 inch prop
which should be more than enough to power your tug.

Hi

The service from PropShop can be fast: I ordered more that 10 pcs prop from
Simon at propshop included a special custom "old fishing boat prop".
All items was ready to ship in less that two weeks.

Thats fanstastic service Simon !

Lucky You!!!!
Make that eight (8) weeks

Hey, this is Tux again their props ( floating Drydock) are fully cas
brass props like you are looking for. Twin props at 3 3/4 inch wil
give you so much power it will be unrealistic unless you are pushin
something. I have 2 1/2 inch twin props on an eight foot Perry clas
frigate and it really moves. They also have both rotations which i
important
